lol good job! :D
:D!
Now that's an interesting take on the town building genre. The title screen sure didn't lie - it is the dark souls of city sims! I really liked how all the text (except for the self-care minigame) was hand written - it gave the game a nice, casual feel. Which completely doesn't match the CARNAGE that's going on on my keyboard while playing it! The whole townbuilding aspect got me confused - how exactly should I keep the people happy and employed when my town has a 100% crime rate? Ah, I'll figure it out later. Overall, the idea has potential and the base game is kinda fun but it has a long way to go!
Bonus points for that self-care minigame though, everything about it is perfect!
@corny Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, the town building was a little bit rushed I think. Basically you have to place A LOT of police stations lol. And if you go too long without doing anything, the city begins to stagnate, which in retrospect I probably should have shown on the UI.
Glad you liked it overall, I do plan to work on it more outside of the jam when I have time!
I reconnected with my essence by playing this game.
@tractorfarm You have no idea how firmly that song has been stuck in my head today.
lol kinda reminds me of my brother, fun stuff and casually played. I like it but I believe with better graphic it will looks nicer. still it's enjoyable
I didn't quite like the townbuilding aspect since I found it quite confusing what each icon did. But it fits in well with the theme. The reconnect with your essence minigame is hilarious. It's easily my favorite part of the game. Overall, good job.
I died after one day. I'm not too bad ! My soul feels better now ! Thank you !
Reconnect with your assets. Cool little typing game included. :thumbsup: Strange but entertaining, didnt quite get how to switch the buildings, I think. Nice.
self care mechanic was an interesting and logical addition. I wish some of the art had been more consistent - the MSPaint instructions give this game an odd sort of charm, but the mayor is a pixely person wearing a dress? He pulls off the dress well too though, it just sorta, doesn't mix well.
Well, this game is unusual. Is there any point to the building mechanic? It seems that I can just run this game forever. Does it end? Is there anything that I am doing wrong? My house bar is at zero, the one right of as well. The green, red and purple ones are all up. What now?
The graphics are obviously awesome :-) Hand-drawn is the best art stlye. You are so inconsistent with all your art assets that this can be considered the consistency. Nothing really feels out of place, everything does.
Nice entry, I found it quite funny :-)
